[QUOTE="Admin, post: 56682, member: 1"] Gwendoline Christie has expressed enthusiasm for returning to play Captain Phasma in the Star Wars universe, saying she "would absolutely love" her chrome-covered character to make a comeback. Speaking to [URL='https://www.empireonline.com/movies/news/gwendoline-christie-wants-more-captain-phasma/']Empire[/URL], Christie acknowledged there could be more to explore with the character outside of her live-action appearances in The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi, where she fell in battle against Finn. Phasma has made a couple of appearances elsewhere in the galaxy far, far away and has even had her own comic run, but that has only left Christie feeling like there may be some untapped potential there. "I haven't read the comics but, I mean, it's Star Wars! I would absolutely love that," Christie said of any future opportunities to bring her character back, including adapting her comic run for the screen. "There was a template for a character that people got really excited about. It would be smashing if they felt that it was worthwhile to explore, along with some fabulous action." Phasma getting knocked into a fiery pit in The Last Jedi [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/2017/12/22/is-captain-phasma-the-sequel-trilogys-boba-fett']certainly left a lot more room for interpretation[/URL] than say, cutting a character in half, or watching them evaporate.
